What is Jka antibody positive?

What is Jka antibody positive?

The Kidd antigen system (also known as Jk antigen) are proteins found in the Kidd’s blood group, which act as antigens, i.e., they have the ability to produce antibodies under certain circumstances. The Jk antigen is found on a protein responsible for urea transport in the red blood cells and the kidney.

What causes anti Jka antibody?

Antibodies to red cell antigens are considered naturally occurring when there is no obvious source stimulus such as blood transfusion, injection or pregnancy. However, these antibodies are produced as an immune response to some unknown environmental antigens such as pollen grains and other parts of bacterial membranes.

Is anti Jka naturally occurring?

The absence of a history of exposure to allogeneic RBCs or possible passive transfer of maternal or other alloantibody classifies these antibodies as naturally-occurring anti-Jka.

What is HDNF?

It’s almost inconceivable that a baby could die because of a seemingly minor difference between its blood and its mother’s blood. But that is what can happen in severe cases of a disorder called hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN).

Is Kidd IgG?

For these reasons, Kidd antibodies are responsible for about one-third of all delayed HTRs, which may be severe. The antibodies are mainly IgG but can be partially IgM. Kidd antibodies rarely cause HDFN, and when they do, it is generally not severe. Anti-Jk3 can be produced by Jk(a–b–) individuals.
